Updated engine bay
Just thought I'd post a pic of my updated bay. You'll observe:
-Forge DV
-New silicon hoses
-New T-bolt clamps
-mini battery
-repainted valve cover
-hks oil cap
-monster sport radiator cap
-removed washer bottle
-aem dry filter
-new turbo manifold
-new RRM decal to go along with my NEW rrm P&P head
All you turbo guys should get this. My car now pulls all the way until redline, no tapering off. You can really hear it flowing too. I didn't know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised by the extra hp my butt dyno recorded!

yeah why did you move the waste gate from 4 to 2??
why didnt you move it to the center (were the 4 tubes merges) well i dont know if its possible with that manifold...

gains are great on my NA DIY porting, RRM's should be even better.
I bet the runner change was due to the EGR running off #4, couldn't even begin to guess the problems from air bypassing the turbo through the wastegate and having the EGR open at the same time in that runner. It "appears" to vent directly into the DP from the #2 runner now, which is why I would assume they chose that runner on this manifold.
just my .02 though, I've been wrong before.
